Baby Girl!

I've seen most of you on facebook, but here is teh official post: So I went in for my scheduled c-section friday and I now am the mother of TWO baby Girls! Bridget has a little sister. Born at 7:53am, 7#10oz 19 1/2 inches long. The c-section was not a lot of fun, but recovery has gone pretty well. It's only Sunday night and i'm walking quite well and have showered for the last couple of days. Elise, unlike her sister, breastfeeds like a champ. I'm not one of those die-hard breastfeeders, but so far things have been going well and so we'll see how it goes when we go home. My husband has a nice federal job with generous leave, so he is taking almost 3 weeks off with me. he will still have to do his Guard duty March 6,7 so those might be the first days i'll have both kids to myself. Bridget has been up to see the new baby on friday afternoon and today. I don't think she knows quite what to think but she did give the new baby a kiss and a hug when she left today. We're going home tomorrow morning, so we'll officially be starting our time as a new family of four! It'll be interesting to see how it goes. Love you guys and i think I'll be posting asking some questiong about BF among other things in the near future!
